MINDFULNESS
Being mindful is about being in the present moment. Sometimes we experience tension in our mind-body because we are resistant to life. If we are not happy or don’t approve of our experiences, we can wire ourselves to tension and stress.
Solutions and the ability to learn are not found in stress, but in peace. Being mindful and accepting things 'are as they are', supports us in letting go of what we cannot change, allowing solutions to come to us, and appreciating the moment for all the good it can offer.

Our Virtue and Yoga pose for this week includes:

• How to practise mindfulness
• A meditation for mindfulness,
• An activity for divergent thinking based on mindfulness
• Colouring in pages for mindfulness
• A poster on Brain Gym to help decrease stress and open the brain for learning,
• A poster on Your Amazing Brain to help children care for their brain.

This weeks activities will support your children in understanding the importance of being mindful to increase the ability to learn, and how to make positive changes to their life.

INCLUDED
Printable posters, colouring in pages, activities and explanations on mindfulness, visualisation, meditation and its benefits.
